CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 QUOTE (ptatc @ Aug 25, 2008 -> 06:15 AM) Is it time to bring back the pre-season prediction thread? I think we have already surpassed the victory total that some of the more pessimistic posters predicted. No need to bring it back with me. I know I predicted .500 and thats if a few of the youngsters came through. Wth Danks and Floyd pitching great and Quentin and Alexei hitting lights out. This season has been a really nice surprise.

Texsox Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 I generally try not to watch the scoreboard during most of the season. It's just too damn long of a season and I like to smooth out the bumps. Now I'm checking the other games and catching the fever. And it's not the kind of fever that is cured with more cowbells. I'm laughing at Cleveland and their Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 September should bring excitement for me, but am I the only one that seems to get all the anxiety and rare excitement? If we win at this point its that we should win, if we lose it throws me overboard. It's so hard, but so much better than being apathetic in Sept.

Agreed. Except in 05 when I wasn't nervous about any playoff opponent. God that was fun. This year though, yeah, I'm going to be very nervous about who the Sox play.

This year though, yeah, I'm going to be very nervous about who the Sox play. I must confess that was nervous about every post seaason series in '05. Hell, a series can turn on one umpires call at the right moment. I offer the AJ dropped third strike call as a classic example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Sox are a good team and will find a way to win today. A three game losing streak doesn't mean the team is the worst team in the history of teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
